HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: MIR610
Cytogenetic location: 11p14.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:28,056,815-28,056,910 (from NCBI)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), such as MIRN610, are approximately 22-nucleotide noncoding RNAs that target mRNAs for translational repression or mRNA cleavage (Cummins et al., 2006).
Using a large-scale cloning approach to identify putative miRNAs in human colorectal cancer cell lines, Cummins et al. (2006) identified MIRN610.
Cummins et al. (2006) mapped the MIRN610 gene to chromosome 11.
Hartz (2008) mapped the MIRN610 gene to chromosome 11p14.1 based on an alignment of the mature MIRN610 sequence (UGAGCUAAAUGUGUGCUGGGA) with the genomic sequence (build 36.1). The KIF18A gene, which Taylor et al. (2006) mapped to chromosome 11p14.1, overlaps the MIRN610 gene in the antisense orientation.
